I came up with a 10' length of red cedar that was just felled. It has lots of taper, from 32" down to 20", and has lots of limbs because it was a full sun tree. So do I have to let it dry before I carve it. I've searched online, and can't find any info necessarily pertaining to wood this size. I did learn that I need to slow the drying down to keep it from cracking and checking, so it's covered by a tarp. I could see it taking over a year to dry completely, and I'd like to peel the bark and get carving. What is the right way? Thanks for the help.
